Don’t Buy What Wall Street Is Selling

We live in a debt ridden society and once in a while forest fires are a good thing to clear up the forest. We allowed too much worthless brush to creep in, now the burning will be intense until it clears up.

Like firefighters, the Fed can't put out the fire, but dig trenches only hoping to containi it. Well, we may need to simply let it burn.

The major risk to an out of control fire is high oil prices, which adds fuel to the fire (wow! pun intended). If we get a break from high oil prices for a while it may help the markets to re-align themselves without depression-era like crashes. Regardless, like surgery, it'll be painful but life saving.

This is all tough, a rough road ahead, but a good thing in the end.
